Ed Wynn Autographs
Isaiah Edwin Leopold (November 9, 1886 – June 19, 1966), better known as Ed Wynn, was an American actor and comedian. He began his career in vaudeville in 1903 and was known for his Perfect Fool comedy character, his pioneering radio show of the 1930s, his performances in classic Disney films such as Alice in Wonderland and Mary Poppins, and his later career as a dramatic actor, which continued into the 1960s. Wynn's variety show (1949–1950), The Ed Wynn Show, won a Peabody Award and an Emmy Award. Late in his career, he began alternating his comedic work with acclaimed dramatic performances; earning nominations for a Golden Globe and a BAFTA award for The Great Man, and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for The Diary of Anne Frank.
Wynn was born Isaiah Edwin Leopold in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to a Jewish family on November 9, 1886. His father, Joseph, a milliner, was born in Bohemia. His mother, Minnie Greenberg, of Turkish and Romanian descent, came from Istanbul (then Constantinople). Wynn attended Central High School in Philadelphia until age 15. He ran away from home in his teens, worked as a hat salesman and as a utility boy, and eventually adapted his middle name "Edwin" into his new stage name, "Ed Wynn".
Wynn began his career in vaudeville in 1903 and was a star of the Ziegfeld Follies starting in 1914. During The Follies of 1915, W. C. Fields allegedly caught Wynn mugging for the audience under the table during Fields's Pool Room routine and knocked Wynn unconscious with his cue. Wynn wrote, directed, and produced many Broadway shows in the subsequent decades, and was known for his silly costumes and props as well as for the giggly, wavering voice he developed for the 1921 musical revue The Perfect Fool. Wynn became a very active member of The Lambs Club in 1919.
